最後依據蒐集的文獻、內容分析與訪談的結果，分別對數學科的課程內容、教學順序、教材內容，以及未來的研究方向提出建議，期盼本研究對我國未來技術型高中，在數學教科書的撰寫與數學綱要的修訂上，皆能提供有助益之參考。;The purpose of this thesis is to investigate learning needs of mathematics in vocational high schools. Based on this target, I first want to know the enrollment rate in each career clusters according to the current statues of technological and vocational education, and then to discuss whether the mathematics curriculum provides sufficient mathematical knowledge for learning professional courses. The discussion is designed by two aspects–content analysis of professional textbooks, and interviews with their teachers.
Objects of study are the three career clusters which consist of over 50% of enrollment rates: “Business and Management”, “Hospitality-Major Category”, “Electronics and Electrical Engineering”. I elaborately record mathematical contents that are included in textbooks of professional subjects used in vocational high schools and then analyze those with current vocational high schools mathematics curriculum guideline. Furthermore, I use the results of analysis as research instrument to interview teachers in order to know the difficulties and demands for mathematics in the teaching scene.
Basing on the collected information and results of content analysis and interview, I offer some suggestions to vocational mathematics curriculum, the teaching material contents, and arrangement orders. I hope this thesis will be a beneficial reference for future mathematics textbooks and mathematics curriculum modification in vocation high schools in Taiwan.
